After rumors swirled that Kendall Jenner would cover American Vogue earlier this year, it has come true–at least in part. The fashion bible just unveiled a special subscribers cover for New York and Los Angeles featuring the brunette beauty. Photographed by Mario Testino (for the cover) and Theo Wenner (inside), Kendall can be seen riding a horse in Marc Jacobs and posing next to Tory Burch in a colorful ensemble.

In her interview, Kendall talks about her most-liked Instagram picture. The one where she poses with her hair arranged in hearts. “I was having a bad day. I wasn’t in the flow. I was like, Everyone sucks. That’s when I did my best image,” she said. “I was lying in bed and messing with it. And I thought, Is this good? And I just posted it, and I remember looking at it right away and having a lot of likes and saying, ‘Huh’”

“I mean, it’s all so crazy to me,” Kendall tells the magazine about having a large social media following, “‘cause it’s so not real life— to stress out about a social-media thing.” She adds, “It has to be organic.”
